Valentino Histoire Satchel


Valentino is one of my favorite design houses and I'm particularly fond of the handbag collection for fall. While many of their designs can be over-the-top and outrageously priced, the glamour and luxury is unparalleled. The Histoire made its debut back in 2007 and was made famous by Angelina Jolie, who not only purchased one for herself, but also had a smaller version created for her daughter, Zahara. I personally, loved the styling of the Histoire tote and I'm delighted to see it reinterpreted as a ladylike satchel. I'm obsessed with the jet black variation! It looks so slick in the super shiny patent leather and the tightly braided detailing is incredibly chic. Preorder from Nordstrom for $1895.

Ladylike and lovely...I'd buy the black one but probably not the pink.

Delish! To me it's such an improvement over some of the more recent overly embellished bags. I'd like one in black, please!
